iOS IOUSBDeviceFamily 12.4.1 Heap Corruption Proof Of Concept
# Exploit Title: iOS IOUSBDeviceFamily 12.4.1 - 'IOInterruptEventSource' Heap Corruption (PoC)
# Date: 2019-10-29
# Exploit Author: Sem Voigtlander, Joshua Hill and Raz Mashat
# Vendor Homepage: https://apple.com/
# Software Link: https://support.apple.com/en-hk/HT210606
# Version: iOS 13
# Tested on: iOS 12.4.1
# CVE : N/A

# A vulnerable implementation of IOInterruptEventSource on a workloop exists in IOUSBDeviceFamily.
# The code can be triggered by a local attacker by sending a malicious USB control request to device.
# It seems the faulting address register is corrupted as result of a heap corruption vulnerability.
# However, on earlier iOS versions (tested on 12.0.1) we were able to trigger a use after free in reserved->statistics relating to the same vulnerable code too.
# This bug was found through statically analyzing xnu from public source and optimized USB fuzzing.
# A proof of concept written in C for macOS is attached, for other platforms python and c code using libusb exists on GitHub (https://github.com/userlandkernel/USBusted)
